[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MorNando:
Hi all, I understand this issue has been posted many times but I may have a different issue than most. Both of my s2 phones cant be seen by Odin in debugging mode but recognized when booted up.

1. I have checked and both Samsung USB and ADB drivers are installed fine and seen in devices and printers within windows 7. (tried different flavours of the driver too)

2. Debugging mode is on before going into download mode

3. I have tried 2 known working cables as I used them previously to update.

4. Tried 3 different versions of Odin

5. Tried 4 different USB ports

One is on stock android ICS and the other on the wrong version of ICS I9100P instead of I9100. I did this in error when first playing with ROMs.

I haven't tried it on another machine although that may be an option later next week. I am guessing it has to be the PC but at a loss as to what could be causing it.

Any help would be appreciated since I have been playing around with this for 4 hours and getting no where.

thanks in advance

Well Chris, it's time for you to download Kies.

And close the antivirus just in case.

Laptops are good for this kind of thing too.

It happened to me once. I just restarted my laptop and it works.

But make sure that Samsung drivers is installed. uninstall the kies and disable your anti-virus.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MorNando:
I tried rebooting and disabling the antivirus but it made no difference. Never tried it without kies installed, although I opened up task manager and killed all related processes to do with kies. I suppose its something to try tonight!

I checked to see if kies would see the devices and the GT-I9100 Stock ROM connected fine but the fact that I have a foreign rom on the other one causes issue.

Its an odd one :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fahadsul3man:
uninstall all the adb or samsung drivers including kies restart and then just only install kies
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MorNando:
Its worth a try mate, I will give it a go tonight.

I have been going over it in my head. It has to be the adb driver as it works in kies, gets recognised by odin when turned on and affects multiple devices. What really puzzles me is that when in download mode the driver loads fine and the phone is showing in devices and printers. The only thing not seeing it is odin.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Try 3 odin versions at least.

Another usb port/cable.

Another pc/laptop.

Hi.

Did you manage to solve your issue? I am trying to root my samsung trend s7572 and have kies installed so I got the drivers, i have tried odin 1.85, 3.04, 3.07 and 3.09, have used all laptop ports, have tried different cABLes too... to no avail.

Please help

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MorNando:
Yeah, in the end I just put the os image and kernel on an sd card then ran them direct. That way I didn't need to use Odin or a pc at all!

[HTC One S] petric789:
Hi everyone!

I have a problem which bugs me since quite a long time. I could not possibly find a solution through google, so as my last resort I am posting it here.

My HTC one S (S4) has a problem with REconnecting to the cellphone network. After extended time (1/2h +) of being in a place where there is no reception, eg my office in my university's basement, it cannot reconnect when I return to a place with reception (eg outside). It just stays like it would have no reception. The reception-bars in the status bar have the little cross over them and I cannot call / write sms etc. I then have to restart the phone to regain full functionality. And after rebooting the screen where I have to put in my PIN says there are two tries left instead of three.

The same thing happens when reconnecting after being in the airplane mode for a while. The airplane mode field is greyed out saying something like "disabling airplane mode" Then I also need to reboot the phone.

This problem started occuring after I flashed a Rom (ViperOneS) for the first time on this phone. I tried fixing it by installing the stock Rom with an RUU exe (for which I had to change the SuperCID) but it didn't help either. I tried different Roms too, but with no success. Unfortunately my service provider does not publish their branded roms for self installing, I would have to bring it to their service station.

My phone currently runs the stock Rom 2.31 (rooted and with CWM installed, bootloader unlocked over the HTC homepage).

Thank you for your help!

Cheers

anyone know how to solve this?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themrperfecto:
From where did you download Cm10 and which device are you using?

What you need to do is flash the kernel provided in the cm10..zip folder named as boot.img

1.Extract boot.img from zip file of cm10

2.Enter fastboot using flashtool

3. flash kernel

4. Enter recovery and install Cm10...

5. enjoy...And make sure you leave it for 15mins for it to settle down at first boot...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
Question [Q] CM10 install problem

;)thermrperfecto was spot on:good:What you had tried to do was flash the stock .587_kernel as a general rule different types of roms have different kinds of kernels.

Basically GB roms have GB kernels, ICS roms have ICS kernels,JB roms have JB kernels and yes wait for it! Cyanogenmod roms have CM kernels:good:There is a couple of exceptions with the new TWRP kernels/recoveries which can multiboot a small number of compatible rom's,but generally the kernel's match the rom.

As thermrpefecto said the kernel for cm10 is in the .zip file you downloded or there are a few compatible kernels in the Development section :good::)
[Nokia Lumia 920] Xaxxus:
Sorry if this issue has already been posted, I am new to this website.

So I just purchased a Lumia 920 from Rogers and unlocked it to use on Telus.

Unfortunately, I had no idea that these phones had so many problems when trying to put them onto a new carrier.

Im getting problems such as:

Tethering Issues

LTE Connectivity Issues

Map downloading Issues

Unable to activate my nokia account through the phone

Now, I have managed to find solutions to most of these problems, but they do not always work. I have solved these issues with some of the most common solutions like:

Using the Access Point setting

setting isp.telus.com as the APN

manually setting all MMS/APN settings

What I want to know is:

Are any of the available ROMs on navifirm plus "Unaltered"?

And has anyone been successful at solving these common problems with any of the ROMs?

Also, on a side note, when I try to install Nokia Care Suite 5.0 I get Error 1723, I have not found any solution to this as of yet (could it be that I am running windows 8?).

*************************************FOUND SOULUTION*****************************************************************************

Basically i decided to try flashing my Lumia over to an RM-821 international developer version (1232.5951.1249.1002).

There is another dev version available on navifirm (1232.2110.1244.3002), didn't try this one.

Had to follow the steps in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2112674

After a painstakingly long process, and worrying whether i would brick my phone going from RM-820 to RM-821 it seems to now be working.

- The APN settings are now configured automatically by the phone (dont need access point app anymore)

- MMS can now be received without problems

- Ugly Rogers boot logo is gone

- phone now displays H+ instead of 4G

- Tethering works flawlessly

Some issues remaining:

- cannot add my nokia account to my phone (had this issue before, was very hit and miss sometimes you could, sometimes you couldnt)

- unable to recieve LTE anymore, the cellular options show a maximum speed of 4G, ill keep you guys updated on this tomorrow as i had this issue before and just had to go downtown and then it magically started working.

Ill keep everyone posted

UPDATE****************************

LTE works fine, I was also able to add my Nokia account (only with high LTE reception).

however, my MMS issues are only half fixed. Can't receive any MMS from wind mobile users (Rogers, bell, Telus work fine.)
[Nokia Lumia 920] Solarenemy68:
You are not going to get LTE service on that the 920 as long as you are using Telus. The LTE Frequencies for the Lumia are 850/1900. Telus uses 800/1800. The frequencies are hardware controlled and cannot be altered. Not even a new or different ROM will solve this issue as it is hardware related.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Xaxxus:
I actually did manage to get LTE running on telus. It just doesnt seem to like working when im in doors or away from the heart of down town toronto. But it IS working.

That still leaves my other issues though. I kind of gave up on the phone. Been trying to sell it ever since which is a shame because its a nice phone.

Too bad nobody is interested in a barely touched unlocked lumia for more than 350 bucks.
[Nokia Lumia 920] netgh0st:
I did very recently unlock my ATT Lumia 920 and I'm using Telus. I'm considering flashing a European Dev ROM, but I'm wondering if I will be able to get LTE working. Can you please more specifically mention the steps you used to get LTE to work?

---------- Post added at 01:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:56 PM ----------

That's not correct. According to wikipedia, Rogers uses bands 4 (1700 MHz) and 7 (2600 MHz) for LTE, Telus supports the only LTE band 4 (1700 MHz). Thus technically everything should just work out of the box.

[Ubuntu Touch General] Yanluk:
Requied:

Custome recovery, working fastboot

First you need to download those files from Ubuntu:

http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch-preview/quantal/mwc-demo/

quantal-preinstalled-system-armel+maguro.img

quantal-preinstalled-recovery-armel+maguro.img

quantal-preinstalled-system-armel+maguro.img

quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip

While downloading, please do a full backup of your phone!

When you have files ready, first 3 IMG files, put then next to you fastboot.exe file, then copy the ZIP file to your phone.

Once that done, reboot you phone in to bootloader.

Chceck on you PC that you phone is connected and recognized: type fastboot devices

You should get line with bunch of number, that means that you phone is pluged in and ready to go.

Next type

fastboot.exe flash boot quantal-preinstalled-system-armel+maguro.img

next

fastboot.exe flash recovery quantal-preinstalled-recovery-armel+maguro.img

next

fastboot.exe flash system quantal-preinstalled-system-armel+maguro.img

Once that's done, reboot phone in to recovery, and in recovery flash quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip, like normal rom.

That's it, reboot you phone and it will boot to UBUNTU (sometimes is stuck on black screen while booting for few seconds, and some people had to flash whole thing twice to boot properly).

Once you done playing with Ubuntu (It's not ready ad daily system by a long mile), boot in to recovery and restore you backup. That's it.

Above procedure should not wipe your memory (it didin't on my phone), but please do full backup before you start!
[Ubuntu Touch General] iferlive:
I think you missed the quantal-preinstalled-boot-armel+maguro.img for boot partition, there doesn't exist two system images.

Thought the same thing.

fastboot.exe flash boot quantal-preinstalled-system-armel+maguro.img

Should probably be

fastboot.exe flash boot quantal-preinstalled-boot-armel+maguro.img

I don't even think I installed some of these img files and it still worked for me...Must have got lucky. But went back to stock after about an hour.
